TitleLetter from E H [Edmond Herbert] Hills, Grayswood Copse, Haslemere, to [Joseph] Larmor
CreatorHills; Edmond Herbert Grove- [pseud. Colonel Rivers] (1864-1922); British astronomer
RecipientLarmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist
Date24 November 1906
DescriptionWhen Larmor gets the plates he should look particularly at numbers 3 and 4. These two overlap and the overlapping part is not exactly the same. He thinks the second is drawn from better material and curve 3 might be better by erasing everything after 1895, but there are points of interest. The four curves are reduced to the same size; number 1 was iroginally larger by Hills though it impractical, giving the reason as its poistion in the Monthly Notices [of the Royal Astronomical Society].
